When the hour for the commencement of the Senate session arrived, members being still in caucus, not a single Senator was present except President pro tern. Thurman, who commanded silence by the usual rap of the gavel, ana tne unapiain ottered prayer, invoking "Divine blessing upon the deliberations of this body." During prayer Senator Hill came in, and at its conclusion the President pro tempore, glnncing at the empty seats, said: "Ihe senator from Georgia will now come to order, and the Secretary will read the journal of yes terday s proceedings." DEMOCRATIC SENATORIAL CAWH'S. The Democratic members of the Senate assembled in caucus this morning, in re sponse to a call issued at the instance of Inends oi the Warner silver uui, and de signed to effect some arrangement if possible for action upon that measure, A new matter lor consideration, however, was presented by a tender on the part of Senator Bayard, of his resignation as Chairman of the Finance committee, offered by him on aocount of remarks made in caucus and elsewhere by sonic ol his colleagues, to the cuect that the commit tee should be reorganized to accord with the views of the majority of the party me Sliver question, a long uw- cussion ensued, similar in most its features to that which took place in last Monday's caucus, but bringingout also decided opposition on the part ol a number ot surer men tiienv selves, to the acceptance of Bayard's resignation, and an expression ol opinion of several of them that the bill needs amendment in various particulars, especially to make the ninth section con form to the tourth, which gives seignor- age to the Government. At the close of the discussion it was agreed to refer the whole subiect, including Bayard s protler- ed resignation, to a committee consisting of Thurman, IfcDonald and Garland, for consideration, and report to future meeting of the cancus. No other action was taken, but there seems to be a general expectation among Democratic Senators that as consequence of Hie interchange of yiews in to-day's caucus, JSayard will withdraw his resignation, and that the majority ot the Finance committee will allow the silver bill to be reported back to the Sen ate with a recommendation, and placed upon the calendar, with an understanding that no action shall be taken on the measure until next session. It is be lieved that Senator Bayard will consent to this course of procedure, in the na lure of acomnromise. although he would inBiai jipon resigning uu uauniuii!up if Coke's resolution to discharge the committee were moia a caucus decree, and will under no circjimstapceB consent to reporting the bill without a distinct understanding tha,t action upon if shall be postponed until next session.

This determipatjon was arrived at in consenuence of doubts very cenemlly expressed in the caucus whether (be enactment of this section would not al together prevent the use of troops for the enlorceiaent oi any law on election uayf, in time of Beoce, it being held by many of .the lawyers present that any UBe of the army, except against armed enemies, would necessarily be for police purpo'es- & was a'" Da,e1 "Pon t,ie hroacl principle, to whiph every member accented, that it is the duty c: Congress to make appropriations in accordance with existing laws. The point was also raised ogams the sixth secuon oi in hill that it infringed unontbe President' constitutional power, as Commaodcr-in Chief nf the arniY. The judicial ex penscs bill was discussed very briefly, but as it also contains clauses in the nature of conditions precedent to the use of money which it appropriates, the caucus agreed with absolute unanimity that its passage should likewise bo opposed, unless these conditions are eliminated.

The Times in its financial article says one of the main causes of the rise in silver was the publication of a letter to the Under Secretary of State for India, giving the views of Lord Odo Russell, British Ambassador to Berlin, in regard to Germany's coinage policy. The letter confirms the announcement of the German Government's determination not to sell any more silver at present. The letter further states the German Government has 10,000,000 in silver on hand, which will increase during the suspension of aaleB, and it is added on authority of Lord Odo Russell that it is generally believed by financial men in Germany that the dovornment is preparing to introduce and adopt the double standard, as iu Irance. This news may be quite correct; for the economic vagaries of the German Government in nil directions are unknown quantities, and we maybe prepared to accept the perpetration of any folly, after what the past' few years have revealed. Slill it would be well to receive this news with caution, for more reasons than one. The belief of financial men in Germany is hardly sufficient ground on which to come to the conclusion that silver will be reraonetized forthwith. As a whole, however, the tendency of the extracts contained in the parliamentry paper where the letter appears is to show that a recovery in value of silver is quite probable. That Germany will cease to sell till prices rise again, is also very likely, for the loss bo far has been severe. Hallway Mnfrnac.' SIeetlui. New York, June 13.

Thef grahd at traction of the evening was the Mapzoiii Requiem, written bv Verdi in honor of Aleasandro Man zoni, and first performed at Milan in 184. The solos were sustuined by wad- am Alvsleben, Miss Cranch, Mr. Fretsch and Mr. Whitney, with a chorus of mixed voices. The latter was exceedingly good in its execution, and lairly won honors, The .duct "Kindly, Jeans, recollect me," sang b jjfsdame Alvsleben and Miss Cranch, held the audience spellbound, and vehicles in the field. The track was not in good condition, not having re covered from the effects ol heavy rains the last two days.

It is stated that there is little or no doubt, however, but tbe sentiment will be for such a strike. It is further possible that the strike will begin next Monday, instead of waiting until July 1.

It is said that "history repeats itself at long intervals," and it might be said that habit is really as strong as first n ture. Such is the case with Mr. Job fields, who reached Columbus just fifty years ago yesterday from the East. In these afirring times it is seldom that man lives in one place for half a century, to say nothing of finding a person who has followed the same business for that tengfy of 'tjme'. Mr. Fields was t young man when he reached this city, and had concluded a long and tiresome journey and desired to be shaved, which operation was performed by wiatl JolinBon, a col ored man. xestcrday, as the hfticth si mvcrsary, Mr. Johnson was called on perform the same service for Mr. Fields Such tilings arc the oases in the course of a long lifetime.

An adjourqcil meeting of citizens en gaged in the organization of uu Hone Money League in tins city vna held at the Board ot" TraJe rooms last evening, with Col. Burr in the chair, and E AlcCune Mecretarv. Mr. Janney, from the committee ap pointed to prepare a platform and flelect olfteera, suhmitted a report, together with the following platform for the government of the league, which is to be known an the Honest Money League of Franklin county : THK PLATFORM. Jiesolveii, That this Association shall hv known as tie Honest Aloney league nl Franklin, county, and any person by sub' flrribinir to the followiuc declaration ol principles can become a member thereof': 1. mat real value is the essential oasis oi Bound currency, and that coyernraent cannot create vuiue. 2. That all paper currency should be the representative of ronl value and pavable in real value of the issue at the will o: holder. 3. That cold and silver beinc more uni form in cost than anv other commodities, and heing the established standards value in commercial nations, they nr,e tor these reasons less lluetuutiuK than any other commodities, and therefore the most reliable standard and measure of values, and being objects of universal desire, they tonn the satest and hest hasis for repre se'ntative or credit medium of exchange. 4. As iutlation of uuredeemiihlc paper currency cannot increase the productive- nous of any actual property, its' effect is not to raise, out to change prices, w;nic(i being mistaken for on niereaiie of value, fosters the spirit of speculation, rather limn promotes the interests oi industry, u. Having now a perfectly safe currency ana un trammeled in public credit, we or opposed to degrading the tornier an jeopardizing the latter by anv schemes i tend toward depreciation and speculati C. Both National and individual uros neritv and all honest industry will be most gubserved by maintaining our currency at par with coin, and this can only be done by Having it convertible into coin on mand. 7. We, are inflexibly oppost'd to all schemes of "fiat money" and to the uiHja-tion of Governmentlegal tender notes un der any pretext, except the cxtrement Government necessity like war or some other emenrencY. ao inereasinir nntum expenses that taxation and the ordinary methods ot borrowing arc inadequate to meet them. 8. That the strict observance of all pu lie contracts ana obligations is ol the utmost importance to tne honor of the na tion and the prosperity hejji topic' aud the laws limiting the iuu of non-inrProst that ioij. New Advertisements. bearing ieftaL lender notes, and pledging ana making provisions for the payment ot the same, are among the most important and sacred of all obligations. 9. Wo invite all persons wh cv,cvm in the views here expressed a unite with us in opposing, iu all Vgttimate ways, schemes whien involve the Violation of the national faith, and that, if carried out, must end' in material dishonor, 19 repudiation of debts, the sttigrmtibn of trade, and CQnseucnt'sttirvatioii of labor. On motion of Cnptain Afyers, tbe platform was adopted,. 1 ' ' ' , ' A rimVes of (he cntleiueia jireacjat Opera House. Have(tus dfiuftrch. All amusement lovers grow happy at the approach of Hav-erly's Minstrels. They will occupy the Opera House next Wednesday night, with one of the fullest companies ever on the road. Says the Chicago Tribune, on their recent performance m that citv. where they are better known than anywhere else: Ihcy ottered one ot toe mow enjoyable entertainmeutB. of the kind lately seen in thin city. They are frefh and original, and free from vulgarities. The unexpectedness of everything constitutes, in an entertainment of this description, the principal charm, and this merit the Haverly Georgia Minstrels have in a high degree. Their jokes are new, and their music is not worn out. Merely to hear Devotion's experience in a Dickens library, or to witness tne 'Senegambinn Hevels' is more than the pleasure all the platitudes the old troupes can afford. The genial spirit which the Georgia Miustrcls convey to the audience is genuine and healthy. The box sheet is placed on sale at Mr, Schneider's music store this morning. fugh Klcttes Hie concert and enter-! tainment by the Pugh Yidettes takes place at the Opera House next Thursday evening with specialties that would orna ment the hncst metropolitan theater on the continent.

The music is a grand feature of the it opera, and it will take with luusic-loviug people, wherever it is reiu-eseited. Xhe choruses are full of rich aud harmonious chords. and hc solos come in sweetly aud pleasantly. The choruses were rendered in a correct manner, while the solos showed very careful and intelligent training. The result of the presentation has been very pleasing upon each occasion to the audiences, as must be especially gratifying tp the instructor and teachers of the music and the parts. The opera wile given for the last time on next uegday evening. Amusement Not en. Alt hough hundreds of our folks are aware of the fact,, yet ninny hundreds who do not go there are not, that the choir who generally furnish nuwio at the Murphy meetings, in Naughtou Hall, contains some of the finest female voices in this city in both the soprano and contralto registers, and particularly the latter, this ten ture ot those meetings alone would constitute a most agreeable entertainment, and then, with whatever else the cause aud its presentation it is not singular that; the meetings continue robust, fully attended anu enthusiastic.

When the hour for the commencement of the Senate session arrived, members being still in caucus, not a single Senator was present except President pro tern. Thurman, who commanded silence by the usual rap of the gavel, ana tne unapiain ottered prayer, invoking "Divine blessing upon the deliberations of this body." During prayer Senator Hill came in, and at its conclusion the President pro tempore, glnncing at the empty seats, said: "Ihe senator from Georgia will now come to order, and the Secretary will read the journal of yes terday s proceedings." DEMOCRATIC SENATORIAL CAWH'S. The Democratic members of the Senate assembled in caucus this morning, in re sponse to a call issued at the instance of Inends oi the Warner silver uui, and de signed to effect some arrangement if possible for action upon that measure, A new matter lor consideration, however, was presented by a tender on the part of Senator Bayard, of his resignation as Chairman of the Finance committee, offered by him on aocount of remarks made in caucus and elsewhere by sonic ol his colleagues, to the cuect that the commit tee should be reorganized to accord with the views of the majority of the party me Sliver question, a long uw- cussion ensued, similar in most its features to that which took place in last Monday's caucus, but bringingout also decided opposition on the part ol a number ot surer men tiienv selves, to the acceptance of Bayard's resignation, and an expression ol opinion of several of them that the bill needs amendment in various particulars, especially to make the ninth section con form to the tourth, which gives seignor- age to the Government. At the close of the discussion it was agreed to refer the whole subiect, including Bayard s protler- ed resignation, to a committee consisting of Thurman, IfcDonald and Garland, for consideration, and report to future meeting of the cancus. No other action was taken, but there seems to be a general expectation among Democratic Senators that as consequence of Hie interchange of yiews in to-day's caucus, JSayard will withdraw his resignation, and that the majority ot the Finance committee will allow the silver bill to be reported back to the Sen ate with a recommendation, and placed upon the calendar, with an understanding that no action shall be taken on the measure until next session. It is be lieved that Senator Bayard will consent to this course of procedure, in the na lure of acomnromise. although he would inBiai jipon resigning uu uauniuii!up if Coke's resolution to discharge the committee were moia a caucus decree, and will under no circjimstapceB consent to reporting the bill without a distinct understanding tha,t action upon if shall be postponed until next session.

The judicial ex penscs bill was discussed very briefly, but as it also contains clauses in the nature of conditions precedent to the use of money which it appropriates, the caucus agreed with absolute unanimity that its passage should likewise bo opposed, unless these conditions are eliminated.

The Times in its financial article says one of the main causes of the rise in silver was the publication of a letter to the Under Secretary of State for India, giving the views of Lord Odo Russell, British Ambassador to Berlin, in regard to Germany's coinage policy. The letter confirms the announcement of the German Government's determination not to sell any more silver at present. The letter further states the German Government has 10,000,000 in silver on hand, which will increase during the suspension of aaleB, and it is added on authority of Lord Odo Russell that it is generally believed by financial men in Germany that the dovornment is preparing to introduce and adopt the double standard, as iu Irance. This news may be quite correct; for the economic vagaries of the German Government in nil directions are unknown quantities, and we maybe prepared to accept the perpetration of any folly, after what the past' few years have revealed. Slill it would be well to receive this news with caution, for more reasons than one. The belief of financial men in Germany is hardly sufficient ground on which to come to the conclusion that silver will be reraonetized forthwith. As a whole, however, the tendency of the extracts contained in the parliamentry paper where the letter appears is to show that a recovery in value of silver is quite probable. That Germany will cease to sell till prices rise again, is also very likely, for the loss bo far has been severe. Hallway Mnfrnac.' SIeetlui. New York, June 13.

Thef grahd at traction of the evening was the Mapzoiii Requiem, written bv Verdi in honor of Aleasandro Man zoni, and first performed at Milan in 184. The solos were sustuined by wad- am Alvsleben, Miss Cranch, Mr. Fretsch and Mr. Whitney, with a chorus of mixed voices. The latter was exceedingly good in its execution, and lairly won honors, The .duct "Kindly, Jeans, recollect me," sang b jjfsdame Alvsleben and Miss Cranch, held the audience spellbound, and vehicles in the field. The track was not in good condition, not having re covered from the effects ol heavy rains the last two days.

It is stated that there is little or no doubt, however, but tbe sentiment will be for such a strike. It is further possible that the strike will begin next Monday, instead of waiting until July 1.

It is said that "history repeats itself at long intervals," and it might be said that habit is really as strong as first n ture. Such is the case with Mr. Job fields, who reached Columbus just fifty years ago yesterday from the East. In these afirring times it is seldom that man lives in one place for half a century, to say nothing of finding a person who has followed the same business for that tengfy of 'tjme'. Mr. Fields was t young man when he reached this city, and had concluded a long and tiresome journey and desired to be shaved, which operation was performed by wiatl JolinBon, a col ored man. xestcrday, as the hfticth si mvcrsary, Mr. Johnson was called on perform the same service for Mr. Fields Such tilings arc the oases in the course of a long lifetime.

An adjourqcil meeting of citizens en gaged in the organization of uu Hone Money League in tins city vna held at the Board ot" TraJe rooms last evening, with Col. Burr in the chair, and E AlcCune Mecretarv. Mr. Janney, from the committee ap pointed to prepare a platform and flelect olfteera, suhmitted a report, together with the following platform for the government of the league, which is to be known an the Honest Money League of Franklin county : THK PLATFORM. Jiesolveii, That this Association shall hv known as tie Honest Aloney league nl Franklin, county, and any person by sub' flrribinir to the followiuc declaration ol principles can become a member thereof': 1. mat real value is the essential oasis oi Bound currency, and that coyernraent cannot create vuiue. 2. That all paper currency should be the representative of ronl value and pavable in real value of the issue at the will o: holder. 3. That cold and silver beinc more uni form in cost than anv other commodities, and heing the established standards value in commercial nations, they nr,e tor these reasons less lluetuutiuK than any other commodities, and therefore the most reliable standard and measure of values, and being objects of universal desire, they tonn the satest and hest hasis for repre se'ntative or credit medium of exchange. 4. As iutlation of uuredeemiihlc paper currency cannot increase the productive- nous of any actual property, its' effect is not to raise, out to change prices, w;nic(i being mistaken for on niereaiie of value, fosters the spirit of speculation, rather limn promotes the interests oi industry, u. Having now a perfectly safe currency ana un trammeled in public credit, we or opposed to degrading the tornier an jeopardizing the latter by anv schemes i tend toward depreciation and speculati C. Both National and individual uros neritv and all honest industry will be most gubserved by maintaining our currency at par with coin, and this can only be done by Having it convertible into coin on mand. 7. We, are inflexibly oppost'd to all schemes of "fiat money" and to the uiHja-tion of Governmentlegal tender notes un der any pretext, except the cxtrement Government necessity like war or some other emenrencY. ao inereasinir nntum expenses that taxation and the ordinary methods ot borrowing arc inadequate to meet them. 8. That the strict observance of all pu lie contracts ana obligations is ol the utmost importance to tne honor of the na tion and the prosperity hejji topic' aud the laws limiting the iuu of non-inrProst that ioij. New Advertisements. bearing ieftaL lender notes, and pledging ana making provisions for the payment ot the same, are among the most important and sacred of all obligations. 9. Wo invite all persons wh cv,cvm in the views here expressed a unite with us in opposing, iu all Vgttimate ways, schemes whien involve the Violation of the national faith, and that, if carried out, must end' in material dishonor, 19 repudiation of debts, the sttigrmtibn of trade, and CQnseucnt'sttirvatioii of labor. On motion of Cnptain Afyers, tbe platform was adopted,. 1 ' ' ' , ' A rimVes of (he cntleiueia jireacjat Opera House. Have(tus dfiuftrch. All amusement lovers grow happy at the approach of Hav-erly's Minstrels. They will occupy the Opera House next Wednesday night, with one of the fullest companies ever on the road. Says the Chicago Tribune, on their recent performance m that citv. where they are better known than anywhere else: Ihcy ottered one ot toe mow enjoyable entertainmeutB. of the kind lately seen in thin city. They are frefh and original, and free from vulgarities. The unexpectedness of everything constitutes, in an entertainment of this description, the principal charm, and this merit the Haverly Georgia Minstrels have in a high degree. Their jokes are new, and their music is not worn out. Merely to hear Devotion's experience in a Dickens library, or to witness tne 'Senegambinn Hevels' is more than the pleasure all the platitudes the old troupes can afford. The genial spirit which the Georgia Miustrcls convey to the audience is genuine and healthy. The box sheet is placed on sale at Mr, Schneider's music store this morning. fugh Klcttes Hie concert and enter-! tainment by the Pugh Yidettes takes place at the Opera House next Thursday evening with specialties that would orna ment the hncst metropolitan theater on the continent.

Tliisnttractiou drew another large and pieasnut audience at the Institution for the Blind last eveuiug. This opera is the principal musical event of the season, that has been rendered by the pupils. Its reiulitiou continues growing better, and those who have tuken parOiave well earned the reputation of being first-class amateur dramatists. Several of the characters in the opeira are difficult to rep- reaeu i, uuu n iiuh rnjuireu imii'ii niuuy uu the part of those who were assigned to them to form a conception, of thei reality, so nearly perfect 11s they have dope. The music is a grand feature of the it opera, and it will take with luusic-loviug people, wherever it is reiu-eseited. Xhe choruses are full of rich aud harmonious chords. and hc solos come in sweetly aud pleasantly. The choruses were rendered in a correct manner, while the solos showed very careful and intelligent training. The result of the presentation has been very pleasing upon each occasion to the audiences, as must be especially gratifying tp the instructor and teachers of the music and the parts. The opera wile given for the last time on next uegday evening. Amusement Not en. Alt hough hundreds of our folks are aware of the fact,, yet ninny hundreds who do not go there are not, that the choir who generally furnish nuwio at the Murphy meetings, in Naughtou Hall, contains some of the finest female voices in this city in both the soprano and contralto registers, and particularly the latter, this ten ture ot those meetings alone would constitute a most agreeable entertainment, and then, with whatever else the cause aud its presentation it is not singular that; the meetings continue robust, fully attended anu enthusiastic.
